Abstract

A method for forming an oxide layer includes forming at least a portion of a gate oxide layer on inner surfaces of an opening, forming a silicon nitride capping layer on the portion of the gate oxide layer, and performing a conversion process to at least partially oxidize the silicon nitride capping layer, forming a nitrogen-doped gate oxide layer.
